18As soon as I and the men with me blow our ram's horns, you men in the other two groups surrounding the camp blow your horns and shout, ‘ We are doing this for Yahweh and for Gideon!’”
19A while before midnight, just after a new group of Israeli guards took the places of the previous group, Gideon and the hundred men with him arrived at the edge of the Midian camp. Suddenly they all blew their horns, and broke their jars.
20Then the men in all three groups blew their horns and smashed their jars. They held the torches high with their left hands, and held up the horns with their right hands and alternatively blew them and shouted, “ We have swords to fight for Yahweh and for Gideon!”
21Each of Gideon's men stood in his position around the enemy camp. As they watched, all the Midian men started running around and shouting in a panic.
22While the 300 Israeli men kept blowing their horns, Yahweh caused their enemies to start fighting each other with their swords/daggers. Some of them killed each other. The rest fled. Some fled south to Beth-Shittah. Some fled to Zerarah village, near Tabbath.
23Then Gideon sent messages to the soldiers in the areas where the descendants of Naphtali, Asher, and Manasseh lived, to tell them to come and pursue the army of Midian.
